We call it our Frequent Buyers Club (as you may already know). This Club has special benefits for Members, e.g. lower shipping costs and access to exclusive products.

Here's the deal highlights:

We're offering you a 40% discount off our Frequent Buyer Club Coffee Range for orders placed until 14/11/2022.

  • $58.20 per 500g per month or total cost for 4 months?

    • +3

      Morning @Herb Utsmellz

      Really appreciate the double check!

      It's the total cost. To further clarify it's $58.20 per 4x500g with one delivery per month, which translates to $14.55 for each 500g bag. I'll have another look at the post wording to see if I can do a better job describing it :)

      • +2

        Coffee subscription - 4 x 500g/mth $78.14 delivered!

        Yep that's 2kgs of the good stuff, delivered in 500g every month for 4 months for only $78.14 delivered! Or add just $8 for an express delivery upgrade!!!

        • Love your comment, has a very nice, positive flow about it!

          Very happy this deal and our FBC is a winner for you :)

  • Back in. Again.

    Best way to get beans imo.

    • +1

      Woohoo @Miso that's fantastic to hear, thank you so much for continuing your FBC Membership!!!

  • Cool, was looking forward to the next FBC :)

    I can only see the express shipping option on the checkout page (on mobile), should there be a $19.95 flat rate delivery button too?

    • Morning @adastra

      Very happy to hear you've been looking forward to this round!

      Unfortunately due to the way the technology integration is structured with shopify for this type of product, to have more than one shipping option (standard or express) we needed to build two product types. Shipping is determined by the product menu selection for our FBC as opposed to at the checkout like our one-time purchase products. In the following screenshot I've highlighted with a green rectangle the two menu option selections, the standard shipping product options say "4 Monthly Deliveries PrePaid…" and the express shipping products say "4 Monthly Deliveries PrePaid … Express Delivery" https://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/361387/99347/two_fbc_s…

      • Oh thanks for clarifying! Was clearly too keen to get my coffee and didn't read the options haha

        • Sure thing, easily done, glad we're on the same page now :)

  • Nice to see equipment on special, too. It’s a great addition to these deals. My final Mystery Flight from the last deal is ready for collection at the PO so I’m looking forward to that.

    • Terrific, glad you think the equipment on special is a "great addition!"

      Hope you love the 4th stop from our recent FBC SMF, apologies for the 4th stop spoiler in the post description :)

      • No problem. I do like me a nice Ethiopian coffee, they may generally be tiny beans but packed with flavour!

        • Glad to hear it!

          Yes, generally a smaller/more compressed coffee, but can be mighty in flavour :)

  • Great value

    • Wonderful, thank you so much for your most welcome compliment!!!

  • +1

    Been on this subscription for over 10 months or so and can recommend for consistent quality.

    • Absolute music to my ears!

      Thank you so much for being such a terrific FBC Member and for your outstanding vote of confidence in our FBC, big smile on this side of the screen :) :) :)

  • Hello, Could you please advise how the $6.99 delivery works?

    • Morning @ilsan0

      Sure thing, great appreciate the clarification check!

      One of the benefits of our FBC is in exchange for prepaying for 4, monthly deliveries with each delivery dispatch restricted to within a set week time frame each month (slightly more restricted than one-time purchased) means you get an exclusively reduced shipping rate. As such at the time of purchase of an Express Post FBC product/s you'll be changed a one-time Express Shipping fee of $27.96. This translates to $6.99 flat-rate Express Shipping per dispatch (4 x $6.99 = $27.96).

      Please let me know if you have any more questions :)

      • Thanks. I would like to order 2kg every 6 weeks. If this is possible, could you please provide cost and product?

        • Appreciate the follow up @ilsan0 :)

          We certainly can make that happen for you. However, that request falls within the scope of our one-time purchase products with our unique scheduled dispatch system, as opposed to our FBC products. At present we are only running a deal on our FBC products, below I've listed the full-price costings for 2kg (2x1kg) of our one-time product range. If you're only interested in deal pricing in-line with your 2kg per 6 week request then you'll need to hold tight for a future deal:

          • Colombia Huila Single Origin 2kg (2 x 1kg bags) $91.96 + $6.99 flat-rate shipping = $98.95 delivered cost
          • Brazil São Paulo Single Origin 2kg (2 x 1kg bags) $87.96 + $6.99 flat-rate shipping = $94.95 delivered cost
          • Moments to Memories Blend 2kg (2 x 1kg bags) $85.00 + $6.99 flat-rate shipping = $91.99 delivered cost
          • South Central Blend 2kg (2 x 1kg bags) $81.76 + $6.99 flat-rate shipping = $88.75 delivered cost
          • Swiss Water Process Decaf 2kg (2 x 1kg bags) $95.96 + $6.99 flat-rate shipping = $102.95 delivered cost

  • Absolutely killing it Tom, FBC 3.0!

      Woohoo for that wonderful compliment, thank you so much!

      Wrapped to know we're in your good books @djthornton we'll keep working hard to stay there :)

  • -2

    So ~$80 for 2 kg = $40/kg delivered

    average deal imo

    • +2

      Hey @Maglia Nera

      Appreciate your feedback. To clarify it's not a deal for "~$80 for 2 kg = $40/kg delivered." It's a deal for $78.20 including delivery for 500g delivered once a month for 4 months (4 separate deliveries of 500g), as opposed to a single delivery of 2kg in 2x1kg bags. Understand it still may not be the ideal deal for you, "to each their own," just thought it was important to clarify the deal to ensure we're on the same page :)

  • You have lost me as a customer! Just kidding. We've just returned from a trip to Kenya carrying many beans (customs approved) and have to drink them before we can resume ordering from Lime Blue Coffee. This is good but also bad. We love your coffee.

    • +1

      Oh no, you got me @Morven at first glance I was looking for the "panic stations" button haha

      Hope you had a terrific trip. Sounds like precious cargo, hopefully your luggage was placed gently on the plane. Wonderful to know you "love our coffee," we're looking forward to having Lime Blue kick start your mornings again :)

  • Really enjoyed the Mystery Flight journey this year, so have extended our sub for the third time.

    • Terrific to hear, wrapped to know you've "really enjoyed" our Surprise Mystery Flights this year!

      Very happy you've decided to continue your journey, thank you so much for placing another order with us, it really does mean so much :)

  • A niche in the market gap finally addressed. Love it!

    • Got to find the gaps where possible, glad we're in your good books, thank you for sharing such positive feedback :) :) :)

  • Hi Tom I didnt realise there was an express post option when I ordered. Can you pls cancel order 22969 so I can reorder with express post. Thanks

    • Sure thing, sounds like a plan, all taken care of for you :)

  • Is it possible to delay dispatch to next month rather than this month?

    • Would like to know that too

    • +1

      Hey @tez0r and @tekken appreciate you reaching out to check!

      Our one-time purchase products are very flexible in terms of moving dispatch around. However, there's less flexibility with our FBC products due to exclusive product offerings and reduced shipping costs. That said sometimes we can find flexibility for our FBC products to suit customer requests, it's a case-by-case scenario. Please email [email protected] the following and we'll get back in touch to let you know if we can make it happen for you:
      1) Your delivery address
      2) Type of product and quantity
      3) The exact delay period you're after

  • Just to confirm, this is a one-time payment and not signing up to a repeat subscription, right?

    The checkout page is referring to a cancellation policy that "may" auto-renew.

    • +1

      Hey@HomebrewFC appreciate the double check and thank you so much for placing an other with us, it's truly appreciated!

      I can 100% confirm this round of our FBC will not auto renew, as per the post description (know there's a lot a content up there) "Any Frequent Buyers Club orders will not automatically renew after your 4th dispatch, please ignore any messaging that said it will, that messaging is just automatically generated by the Recharge App, feel free to screenshot this comment for peace of mind" :)

  • Hi, Is the…. 'Swiss Water Process Decaf per 500g @ 40% off only $16.19 (normally $26.99)'' ground coffee ?

    • Hey @Telstar1 appreciate you reaching out to check!

      Our FBC products are exclusively sent out in whole bean form. However, we have a special discount on a coffee grinder, see details below. If you're not yet ready to take the leap into a coffee grinders yet, then we still offer pre-ground coffee as an option with our one-time products :)

      "Our FBC is available exclusively in whole beans. If you want to be a Member of our FBC and improve your coffee tenfold by switching from pre-ground to ground on demand, then we've got something special for you to assist the transition. On our coffee equipment page you'll see 30% off Hario Smart G Handy Electric Grinder only $139.30 (normally $199). If you want to add to or improve your brewing equipment we have 30% off that too, AeroPress Coffee Maker only $38.50 (normally $55) and Fellow Clara French Press 24oz only $125.97 (normally $179.95). Please note as these are one-time products the system will charge you an extra $6.99 shipping, but don't worry we'll refund that to you within 24 hours of your order. Any equipment you order via this deal will be sent with your first FBC dispatch 1st delivery dispatched 21st-25th November, 2022"

  • Ordered this when I saw the email come through, as 500g a month is a really good amount for us (2 drinkers, usually only one cup a day using a French press). We find one kilo a bit too much and don’t want to faff around with freezing etc. can’t wait to start.

    • +1

      Hey @em that's terrific news, thank you so much for jumping at the chance to join our FBC, it really does mean a lot!

      Very happy to hear you've found the perfect monthly quantity to suit you, Goldilocks (don't want to run out and don't want to stockpile either) quantity for the win :)

  • I'm after a medium roast. Could anyone confirm what is the roast level? Are all variants roasted the same?

    • Morning @blueberry-sky appreciate you taking the time to double check, better safe than sorry!

      I believe all our FBC options should be winners for you in terms of our roast profiles. They're all roasted omni/medium to suit both espresso and filter :)

      • Thanks a lot for clarifying. Just placed an order for 2x 500g. Really looking forward to my first cup!

        • +1

          Wonderful, thank you so much, really appreciate the order and I'm very happy to know you're looking forward to it too!!!

  • Tom whats the benefit if you're after 1kg a month? Your original FBC deal 1kg of every moments was $19.62 + $4.99 delivery, your second was $28.12 + $4.99 and this deal is $28.50 + 4.99. Now I understand the price hike due to global coffee prices and other economical factors. But why does the frequent buyers club charge more per a delivery at the 1kg threshold rather than ur limited time offers? Your last Moments to Memories deal was $25.50 + $6.99. To be clear this is 1 dollar more per a delivery of 1kg of Every moments compared to ur last limited time offer and was also posted after your FBC 2 post. So I'm thinking I'm better off waiting for next 1kg deal as will have more flex-ability on days. FYI I subscribed to you first 2 FBC and absolutely love your coffee.

    • +1

      Morning @Ragzs really appreciate the nicely worded frankness of your message. I think overall you've worded your queries in a very fair and respectful manner, which hasn't gone unnoticed, thank you and I'm wrapped to know you "absolutely love" our coffee!!!

      I do appreciate your acknowledgment of "global coffee prices and other economical factors" in your comment, as opposed to numbers comparisons without any context. The prices have been a tad wild on our side, inflation and shipping has played it's part, but mostly it's due to natural factors e.g. frost in Brazil wiping out crops (Brazil produces roughly 1/3 of global coffee production, so an impact there impacts global prices) and also due to the FX rate of AUD:USD (coffee is traded in USD). On average we pay multiple times the C price (coffee commodity price), but the C price does have an impact on all coffee. Recently the C price has gone down a bit from the hikes from the coffee production (Brazil) and export (transport strikes in Colombia) issues, but our costs have actually gone up as recently as in October because the reduction in the AUD value has more than counteracted the C price reduction.

      In terms of your numbers, I don't believe the "$19.62 + $4.99 delivery" pricing on our initial FBC 1.0 deal for 1kg per month of our Moments to Memories blend is an ideal price comparison to our FBC 2.0 or this current deal FBC round, as there's too many differences between them, below are a few:

      • $19.62 was the cost for 1 x 1kg bag. $28.12 and $29.10 (this deal is 60 cents more per kg than "$28.50") are both for 2 x 500g which requires double packaging, labels and more than twice the time to pack 2 x 500g compared to 1 x 1kg
      • $19.62 was for a 52% discount in November 2021. $28.12 was for a 40% discount in July 2022 and $29.10 for a 40% discount in November 2022
      • $19.62 was for 6, monthly prepaid orders, meaning each order generated 50% more prepaid revenue than $28.12 and $29.10 which are both based in 4, monthly prepaid orders

      I still don't think year apart comparisons are ideal to make a decision today. I personally think price comparisons for purchase decisions are better suited to today's prices vs. future pricing. However, I can 100% appreciate different people have different systems to decide about purchases. If comparing the 2021 pricing is part of your process to assess today's value then it may be better to compare based on the same product of 2 x 500g and the same discount of 40%. In this instance 52% off 2021 pricing for 1 x 1kg = $19.62 becomes 40% of 2021 pricing for 2 x 500g = $28.12

      Here's the differences of our 40% FBC Moments to Memories product compared to the same 40% discount on a one-time deal on Moments to Memories based on today's pricing:

      • FBC product standard flat-rate shipping $4.99 vs. one-time product standard flat-rate shipping $6.99
      • FBC product express flat-rate shipping $6.99 vs. one-time product express flat-rate shipping $12.99
      • FBC product deal locks in a discount for 4 months worth of deliveries vs. one-time product deal means you can lock in a maximum of 2 months worth of deliveries with our unique scheduled dispatch system
      • FBC products offer a little bit less life admin as a single order covers 4 shipments vs. one-time products is one shipment per order, so 4 shipments means placing 4 separate orders
      • FBC includes exclusive products not available for one-time purchases
      • FBC products all (including Moments to Memories) have a 40% discount live now vs. one-time products currently have no live discount and we haven't yet figured out any potential future deals. We focus on one deal at a time. Our next deal may be Moments or may be something else. Full-prices may change and % of discount may change, not saying it will, just that "tomorrow is promised to no one"
      • One-time products have the option of 1kg or 500g bags vs. FBC products are exclusively sent out in 500g bags
      • One-time products are available in optional pre-ground form vs. FBC products are only available in whole beans form
      • One-time products can be placed as a single order vs. FBC products are placed as 4 prepaid orders
      • One-time products allow customers to choose from a very flexible dispatch date schedule vs. FBC products have a more restricted dispatch date time frame

      As a result of the cheaper shipping, product for product our FBC deal is cheaper than the same % off a one-time product e.g. FBC MTM @ 40% off 2 x 500g $29.10+ $4.99 per dispatch = $34.09 vs. one-time MTM @ 40% off 2 x 500g $29.10+ $6.99 per dispatch = $36.09 . However, if your focus is saving money and you're not too fussed about smaller packaging to maintain/extend freshness (freeze one bag while using the other) or grouping your order to split with someone, then with a 40% off discount deal based a one-time product of 1 x 1kg bag with $6.99 shipping you'll save $1.60 per kg vs. a 40% discount deal on a FBC product of 2 x 500g bags per month with $4.99 shipping.

      There's different benefits for both our FBC and one-time products, it comes down to your personal preference of which benefits suits you best. Once again, thank you for reaching out in the way you did and I hope my response is helpful :)

      • Wow thanks Tom. Appreciate the level of detail in your response. Genuinely best online customer support that exists. Makes sense the additional $1.60 per a kilo coming down to packaging in two bags. Its just the Scrooge in me arguing for 1kg bags be added to FBC to minimise costs. This time round I'll end up going 1.5kg an order as my tolerance for caffeine has unfortunately been improving since being part of FBC!

        • Fantastic, very happy that you found my response to be helpful and not too much overkill on the detail!

          No harm in asking, worst case you end up in the same scenario as you were in before the question, best case you get a yes. Terrific news that you've decided to continue your FBC Membership with us. Thank you so much for placing another order with us, especially as you're pushing some impressive numbers with 1.5kg per month :)

  • Tom, massive fan of your Brazil São Paulo single origin beans. When might we see a deal on them? I'd like to schedule monthly bags delivered if possible.

  • Hey @Blu wonderful to hear, love that you're a "massive fan" of our fresh coffee!!!

    Appreciate you reaching out to check and multiple scheduled orders sounds terrific. The monthly schedule is possible right now, slight caveat is that our Brazil São Paulo is only currently available at full-price. We tend to focus on one deal at a time. I'm confident we'll likely run a future deal for our much loved Brazil São Paulo Single Origin, however, I honestly don't know when it will be or what the deal will specifically look like in terms of pricing/discount. Sorry I can't give you a more specific time frame or even narrow it down to 2022 or 2023, but if you get in supply dire straits AKA a coffee emergency then at least you know it's currently available for purchase and scheduled dispatch :)

  • Hi Tom,
    Do let me know if you happen to have any cancellations or otherwise manage to fit one more order of 500g/month Surprise Mystery Flight (Rotating Single Origin) please.

    Or if any of the special SO might be available to purchase, say maybe in a Black Friday sale?

    Cheers ;-)

    • Hey @JayParker

      Really appreciate you taking the time to reach out!

      Happy to shout out if availability changes. Please don't get your hopes up too much, as we've had a Surprise Mystery Flight waiting list going since Monday morning (this SMF sold out at lightning speed). There'd need to be a number of cancellations to get you a spot on this Surprise Mystery Flight. Just had a look and I think your OZ B profile settings don't allow DMs, could you please send an email to [email protected] and I'll add you to the waitlist?

      If you're still keen on joining this FBC round beyond our SMF option, then we still have spots available for our It's Summer Somewhere, Moments to Memories and our SWP Decaf options :)
